S100A4+ Stromal Cells from Normal Lung vs. Metastatic Lung

ABSTRACT: Analysis of S100A4+ stromal cells at the gene expression level in physiological setting versus metastatic setting. Total RNA was isolated from FACS-sorted S100A4+ stromal cells from normal lung of S100A4-GFP transgenic mice compared to FACS-sorted S100A4+ stromal cells from metastatic lung of 4T1 tumor-bearing S100A4-GFP transgenic mice.

Project description:We previously proposed a clinically meaningful intermediate metastatic state defined by a limited number of new metastases (≤5) after 3 months of follow-up, termed oligometastasis that has the curative potential by local cancer treatments as in contrast to the incurable widespread polymetastatic dissemination. While animal models of polymetastasis exist and this phenotype can be further enhanced upon serial in vivo passage, animal models of oligometastasis are not available. Here, we report the creation of an oligometastasis model of MDA-MB-435 human tumor in nude mice in which the oligometastatic phenotype exhibits stability during successive in vivo testing, and satisfies the criteria of ≤ 5 total body macroscopic metastases definition of the human cancer oligometastatic state. In parallel, we also developed an MDA-MB-435 polymetastatic model in which the polymetastatic dissemination pattern was either poly-foci at lung, or involved multiple anatomic sites including lung, heart, muscle, ovaries, kidney, brain and pleura. We have conducted microRNA expression profiling of cell lines derived from distinct lungs of oligo- and poly-metastatic animals. Animal model-derived microRNA expression features that discriminate oligometastatic cell lines from those of polymetastases accurately identify oligometastatic patients who failed to develop widespread metastases (P=0.005). These results demonstrate the clinical relevance of the oligo- and polymetastatic animal models we have developed and their potential in elucidating the molecular underpinnings of oligometastasis progression. We developed a stable human tumor (MDA-MB-435-GFP) xenograft model of oligometastatic and polymetastatic progression by conducting three consecutive rounds of experimental lung colonization assays. In the first round, we generated oligometastases-like lung derivative MDA-MB-435-L1-GFP (L1) or polymetastases-like MDA-MB-435-L1Mic-GFP (L1Mic) cell lines. We subsequently generated three oligometastatic L1 lung cell lines as well as four polymetastatic L1Mic lung cell lines from seven distinct animals of the second in vivo passage for further biological characterization and for microRNA expression analysis.
